Bosch motor problems

.... Could it be bad contacts on the assist switch changing assistance level?. Or a bad contact on the. Display panel. . If this looses contact, all power is switched off. Or just the battery pack jiggling out of contact. .. I found that using a bungee cord would hold it secure.

that might have something to do with your problem, but you need to keep an open mind because it might have nothing to do with the cause.
Try taking the battery out and cleaning and greasing the connection this might solve it.
Thanks
Have you had problems with motor cutting out or changing speed?
I haven't because I do this, but it is a problem if the connection gets wet and corrodes abit. clean it, grease it and put it back and it could solve your issues.
Agree with KTM, must look after the connections, and use the right grease for electrical connections.
.. one of the oddities of the intuvia display is that it does not tell you if the battery gets disconnected. Since it has its own internal battery , the display will still light up and display the last valid battery power
Possibly, but it depends what type of service you had... most services are just gears / brakes and a software update. I don't think they'd have done things like regrease all the parts on the bike that need greasing, that's a bit more than just a service in the eyes of most bike shops I've experienced.
Its a bit like expecting them to lube your chain in the service, they probably won't. Its really something of a good habit you should get into.

The remote switch is known to have corrosion issues
(This bit)
For quite a while, my switch would occasionally change the assist level down when I pressed the "i" button, I just lived with it as it was intermittent and now I think about it, it hasn't happend this year ( about the last 300 miles)
It might be worth you taking a look inside for water damage
( my switch was dry inside when I looked)
also the main display could suffer water ingress in a downpour, stick it in the airing cupboard when your not useing it, or maybe a plastic bag with some dry rice.

You can tell when the battery is disconnected as the speed will not be displayed it will not even display 0 mph as if your stopped with the battery connected, it will just be blank no mph or number on the display.
